We have an oMniflow 7 as well, and looking at the calibration procedure, it indicates that turning the pots ( total of 5 pots. 4 on the lower board and one on the upper board )fully counter-clockwise is the FIRST step of a series of tests. Then you w

At this point I'm comfortable with my suppliers, although we will definitely look at the machines running and verify they'll build our products to our satisfaction. All three machines meet or exceed our requirements for component range, speed, accu

I have never personally understood the attraction to Mantis, but to each his/her own. They make me seasick from shaking around, and the view area always seems to be rotating off axis for me. They work great if I stand on my head and close my right ey
